Matteo P. Giovanditto: Murdered Thanksgiving Weekend

The bucolic town of Celebration was designed by Disney and created in 1989. It is viewed as a very safe place by its residents. Mr. Giovanditto lived in a first-floor condominium at the Idlewyld. The murder occurred during Thanksgiving weekend at the condominium where Matteo lived, notes CBS.

Call to Tip Line Locates Matteo Giovanditto’s Car inKissimmee

The black Corvette that belonged to Mr. Giovanditto was found in Kissimmee, Florida, after an anonymous call gave the information to a tip line. The death has been classified as a homicide by the police due to evidence discovered in his condominium, reports the Orlando Sentinel.

Body Left on Kitchen Floor

The neighbors in nearby condos had filed a missing person report after they noticed that Matteo had not been seen in several days. On the Monday after Thanksgiving, several neighbors and members of the association that runs the condominiums entered Mr. Giovanditto’s unit. They found his corpse on the kitchen floor, covered by a blanket.

Let’s hope the police in Celebration were able to find enough evidence in the condominium, such as a murder weapon, fingerprints or hair, that could help solve this crime.

As Celebration comes to grips with the first murder in the community, there must be many questions about who the killer is. Is it someone from the community?
